The purpose of this tag is to give a visual hint to readers of talk page items to ignore a discussion thread is moot, that is, having no relevance on the final outcome (see the {{wikt-lang|en|moot|Wiktionary entry for ''moot''|i=-}}). It is hoped that the existence of this tag will make it easier for the reader to pass over these topics or to understand that a response is no longer required or requested. 

== Usage ==
Place the following at the beginning of a comment:
 '''{{((}}Moot|{{tildes}}{{))}}'''
{{Moot|[[User:Example|JohnDoe]] 00:00, 15 January 2001 (UTC)}}

To make an additional comment explaining why the issue is moot, and/or to sign so that others know who marked the thread as stuck:
 {{((}}Moot|reason=See {{brackets|WP:POLICY-PAGE}}. --{{tildes}}{{))}}
{{Moot|See {{fake link|WP:POLICY-PAGE}}. --[[User:Example|JohnDoe]] 00:00, 15 January 2001 (UTC)}}
(The named parameter, {{para|1}}, {{para|reason}}, {{para|result}}, or {{para|text}}, is necessary if there are any "=" characters in the message, for example if your raw signature contains "=".)
